Additional casting has been announced for the concert version of the Tony Award-winning musical Titanic, which will be presented as a benefit for the New York Society for Ethical Culture, at NYSEC’s 800-seat Concert Hall, on Monday, June 21.

The concert will be directed by Matthew Hamel with music direction by Jonathan Tessero. The cast will feature original Broadway cast members Martin Moran (Harold Bride), Henry Stram (Etches), Jennifer Piech (Kate McGowan), Michael Mulheren (Mr. Thayer), and Alma Cuervo (Ida Strauss), along with John Hickock (J. Bruce Ismay), Tim Jerome (Captain E. J. Smith), and Liz Larsen (Alice Beane). Further casting will be announced shortly.

Maury Yeston and Peter Stone’s musical is set aboard the RMS Titanic during its ill-fated maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York City, which infamously ended with the loss of the ship and over 1500 lives. Titanic interweaves stories of passengers of all classes, along with the ship’s crew and orchestra.
